Cat Sitting in Hampden

“Riley was awesome! We contacted her kind of last-minute, but she made time to meet us and our cat before our trip and then accommodated our drop-in needs through the week. She's responsive, trustworthy, and caring, which went a long way toward mitigating our cat's usual grumpiness when we go away. We highly recommend Riley to others in the area!”

“Thank you for being so reliable again and taking such good care of the animals!”

“Michelle was such a great sitter for my two cats! She is super attentive and caring. She always updated me with pictures and what my cats were doing. I highly recommend her. Thank you again!”

Bella R.

“Was very punctual and communicative. Took multiple pictures and sent them to me when the drop in visit was over.y dogs loved him and took to him immediately.”

About: Feeding, entertaining, and walking pets. Friends and family have trusted me in caring for their pets like my own when needed. I have had pets of all kinds growing up and have a passion for caring for dogs, cats and small animals such as guinea pigs. I currently work full time Monday through Thursday in the human services field as a case manager. My schedule is flexible and I am available every weekend. I currently have two cats who are my best friends. I have grown up around dogs and have dog sat for many years for friends and family. Walking and pop ins are the best part of my day.

“Sammy watched my dog Brody for a week. She showed up each day on-time and provided pictures and texts. I really felt like she did a good job with him as he can be difficult to warm up to people when we aren’t there. I would definitely recommend her and use her again!”

About: I've been dog sitting for a little over 8 years now for friends and family. I started dogsitting for clients at the salon I used to work for. I own 2 dogs myself one of which is 11 and the other is 5! I love cats and dogs so much and I can't wait to have my own house to adopt as many as I can! I currently don't own any cats but I can't wait to in the future! I currently am working as a full time bank teller Monday-Saturday at the Polish National Credit Union! I'd love to be available for overnights during the week for your pet and then just go to work during the day. The weekends I'm usually available full time for petsitting! I'm very flexible with what needs to be taken care of for your pet! I can take them on walks or for car rides. I can play fetch for as long as they want outside. Obviously take them out for potty and feed them give them treats. I can cuddle with them or brush them. I have taken care of a blind dog before so I can give them eyedrops or medications as well!

“Ashley did an outstanding job taking care of Sunny while we were away! She came up with great ways to help Sunny with his anxiety, like turning on the TV and taking him for two walks during the day. She also made sure he had fresh water at all times, which was incredibly important with the weather in the 90s. I will definitely recommend Ashley, and we will absolutely use her services again!”

About: As someone who has grown up always having dogs and cats, I know how important it is to have someone who is comfortable and loves being around animals to take care of them. I have been dog sitting family friends’s dogs and pets since I was 19. I work Monday-Friday on a 9-3:30 schedule. I am available before work and after 3:30 during the week. During the summer I will have more availability. I think it’s important to build trust with animals by providing them the space they need, especially when you’re someone new to them. I care for my own pets by spending quality time with them by taking them on walks (dogs, or even cats if that’s what you are looking for too!) and with my own pets, giving them lots of love and affection and an occasional treat (or 2.)

“Cara was happy to accommodate a pretty last-minute request for a single drop-in visit for our little guy when we were gonna be away for an evening into late night. As always, she was fantastic with her communication and flexibility!”

David L.

“This is the first time we’ve ever had an outside person come to our home to care for our pup and it was nothing but a positive experience. From the meet and greet to the drop-in, Kage exceeded our expectations. His kindness and professionalism impressed us; he followed all of our instructions to a T, (our dog is under a medical protocol and needed special care) and his update at the end of the drop-in was very reassuring, detailed and thoughtful. We will not hesitate to have him come back to take care of Josie!”

Ellen S.

“Quincy absolutely adores Alison. He arguably loves her more than me. Alison is fantastic with my dog and he can be a prickly little guy. I received so many great photos! It was super easy to talk to Alison and make adjustments to my reservation. I will certainly be rebooking with Alison.”

About: I used to volunteer at Dakin Human Society during college through their Dixie Dog Program where I walked dogs, fed them and enriched their time before adoption. I currently have two dogs of my own (both over 100 lbs each!) and a senior cat. I have experience working with senior dogs as well. I have a life filled with wonderful pet experiences and I would be happy to give great care to your animals as I have giving care to my own. I have also had experience bottle-feeding puppies and training them during their puppyhood! I am currently working part time, so I have lots of time to play with your pups! If you are interested in a weekly midday let-out/play time/walk schedule, then I am available for you. I am also interested and available for house sitting if needed during the work week, and weekends as requested! From December 20th to January 26th, my schedule is entirely open for the holiday time for house sitting and other services! I would not be able to provide my own in-home services for dogs, but would be willing to bring your pup to a nearby park of your choosing during my services!

“Clover always has a great time with Ace! Ace is always respectful, communicative and sends great photos and summaries of the visits! Highly recommend!”

“Paul is our go to! He’s excellent with our almost 16 year old dog and are very grateful to have him take such good care of her while we are gone.”

Christine G.

“Jessiana was absolutely fantastic. She took great care of my babies. I have a hermit cat that takes a long time to warm up to people. I even said not to be concerned if you never see him. He started to come out within a few days and that is huge. I always worry about my diabetic cat when I go away because he his elderly. She took absolutely fantastic care of him. I am very grateful for her care.”

About: I’ve done pet sitting and dog walking since I was 12 years old. Family, friends and neighbors rely on me to care for their pets because this is my passion. I have experience with all types of pets. I currently go to school part time in Holyoke, I have a very flexible schedule! I have tons of extra time to give your pet all the love they need. I go into your home, take care of whats required by you, and leave your pet happy and well taken care of. No strings attached.

About: I have had pets my whole life and have been trusted to care for them consistently. Having 2 of my own dogs and many reptiles/amphibians, my care for pets goes deeper than most. I am currently working on becoming credentialed as a NP so I am no longer working a full time job, making me free almost any day. I have a fenced in yard with 2 friendly dogs but am also available to come to your home as needed! I have a home of my own as well so I know the importance of keeping the home safe and clean for our little friends.

“Anna is absolutely amazing! I was so nervous to hire a “stranger” last minute for my trip but Anna made everything soooo stress free!!! She took perfect care of my pup, sent daily updates & was easily accessible via message! Anna is the best of the best!! ♥️♥️ so happy she is no longer a stranger !”

“I was lucky to find this wonderful family right before heading out on vacation, and I couldn’t be more grateful. From the very start, communication was clear, prompt, and professional. They were reliable and stuck to the agreed schedule, which I truly appreciated. My dog a 5 month old Standard Poodle who’s a giant ball of mischief connected with them right away. It’s clear they have tons of experience and, most importantly, a genuine love for animals. I had originally booked someone else who canceled last minute with a silly excuse… but honestly, I’m glad it happened because it led me to the right people. They deserve all the stars. Highly recommend!”
